Porsche Cayman GT4 spied sans camouflage

We heartily approve.

We've been getting glimpses at increasingly-undressed Cayman GT4 test vehicles for months now, but today, finally, we get to see the full frontal view: Here is Porsche's most hardcore Cayman yet, in what looks to be production-ready form, with not a hint of camouflage anywhere.

We don't know everything about this super-hot Cayman yet, but what we do know we like. Due out as a 2016 model, this sportiest of the Cayman line has the same mission as Porsche's almighty 911 GT3–namely, to be a razor-sharp track car that's still somewhat usable as a daily driver.

The spy photographer who caught these shots of the undressed Cayman GT4 on a German highway points out the upgrades visible on the mid-engine screamer: Lowered ride height, huge cross-drilled brakes, unique wheels, and that signature elbow-height wing out back. Note also the sliver of an airscoop just ahead of the front trunk opening, a signature GT3 detail appended to the GT4.

The one big question mark is what exactly will power this machine. Rumored engines include a warmed-up 3.8-liter flat-six from the 911, good for 400 horsepower, and a turbocharged four-cylinder, perhaps with some kind of hybrid trickery. Oh, and don't worry, there will most likely be a drop-top Boxster variant as well.
